Restoring /home

Ok, here is what I've done to restore my /home partition.

What was the problem?All of partitions where successfully mounted except one -- the /home. It looked as a total disaster, because I didn't have a recent backup. Remember! Always do a backup of your important data.

I use reiser3 type partition, and we have excellent tools such a resierfsprogs to manage such partitions. Because first error came from bad superblock, I did:reiserfsck --restore-sb /dev/hda8

ReiserFS... Why do people still use it? Oh, BTW there is nice incremental backup based on rsync: "app-backup/rdiff-backup".There is also ~1TB RAID1 on janus01 dedicated for various backups, but you should know it already, as you have seen me making backups ;)
